"Consort Li?"
Chang Sheng's gaze landed on the jade carriage covered in dark golden patterns. With the help of his God Eye of Destruction, a strange expression flashed across his face.
? Although the Broken God Eye couldn't see through, it allowed Chang Sheng to 'see' the aura inside the jade carriage.
There was indeed someone sitting in the jade carriage.
However, it wasn't just one person, but two.
Moreover, one of them had an unstable aura. He must have been poisoned.
Other than the poisoned man, the other man had a tender aura and was at most ten years old.
"The poisoned person is Consort Li?"
Chang Sheng guessed in his heart, his eyes pensive.
In the past ten years, although Chang Sheng had never left Mount Wudang, he had heard the discussions of the other disciples. There was even a lot about the Tang royal family.
Now, the Tang Emperor favored Consort Li, and for this reason, he had not summoned the Empress for several years.
If it wasn't for Consort Li only giving birth to one princess, the Imperial Palace would have been in chaos by now.
But even so, as the Tang Emperor aged, the court was still filled with undercurrents and infighting.
The princes were already at loggerheads.
"Someone in the harem poisoned Consort Li.”
"As a last resort, Consort Li came to Wudang Mountain for a period of time in the name of worshipping Dao.”
"It's clearly self-cultivation, but it's actually to avoid disaster?"
In just a moment, Chang Sheng had roughly guessed the reason why Consort Li had come to Mount Wudang.
In fact, to be able to blatantly poison Consort Li in the Inner Palace, it was probably related to those nobles.
Even the Tang Emperor had no choice but to let Consort Li come to Wudang Mountain. It could be seen how chaotic the court was.
However, it was definitely the best choice for Consort Li to come to Wudang Mountain to avoid disaster.
Wudang Mountain, as a major martial arts sect in the world, had never interfered with the government. As long as Consort Li could enter Wudang Mountain, she would be safe.
No matter how capable the nobles in the palace were, it was impossible for them to reach into Wudang Mountain.
The Tang Emperor himself probably knew that Concubine Li alone would most likely be rejected by Wudang Mountain. Therefore, he had specially issued a written order to protect Concubine Li.
"It's said that the Jianghu struggles are fierce, but compared to the Imperial Palace, it's still not worth mentioning."
Chang Sheng was slightly emotional.
"In the jade carriage, besides Consort Li, the other person should be her daughter, the princess of the Tang Empire.”
Chang Sheng thought to himself.
If Consort Li had really come to Mount Wudang to avoid disaster, she would not have left her daughter in the palace.
Just as Chang Sheng was thinking.
The jade carriage had already slowly entered Mount Wudang.
In order to prevent his disciples from disturbing Consort Li, Sect Leader Qing Xu had specially given Consort Li a bamboo forest next to the Chores Yard.
The Chores Quarters was located in a corner of Wudang Mountain, and the bamboo forest was even more remote than the Chores Quarters.
Other than the disciples of the servant quarters, it was impossible for other disciples to pass by.
Sect Leader Qing Xu had considered everything. Since he had accepted Consort Li, he had to entertain her as well as possible. Otherwise, wouldn't he be in trouble on both sides?
Although Sect Leader Qing Xu also realized that Wudang Mountain might be in big trouble, there was nothing he could do.
He couldn't just disobey the Tang Emperor's decree.
Ever since Consort Li and the others had moved into Mount Wudang, the Wudang elders had warned the disciples of the various courtyards not to approach the bamboo forest.
Especially the Chores Quarters.
The bamboo forest was right next to the Chores Quarters. As long as they looked after the Chores Quarters, there would basically be no problems.
Following that, Chang Sheng resumed his old life.
Although Consort Li and the others had joined Wudang Mountain, there was basically no change to the mountain.
Chang Sheng was even more so. When he needed to cultivate, he needed to sign in.
On this day, Chang Sheng was about to go to the Alchemy Pavilion to sign in. When he passed by the bamboo forest, a crisp voice suddenly sounded.
"Little Daoist, wait a moment."
Chang Sheng turned his head and saw a fair little girl running over.
"Scholar."
Chang Sheng lowered his gaze and said calmly.
This girl was Consort Li's daughter, a princess of the Great Tang.
"You really walk fast."
The little girl panted, her large eyes staring at Chang Sheng.
" Scholar, it's getting late. You should go back and rest." Chang Sheng naturally didn't want to have anything to do with the Tang Princess.
In Chang Sheng's heart, whoever dared to disturb his leisurely life would be slapped to death.
"I just rested."
The little girl looked at Chang Sheng carefully and said pitifully,""Can you chat with me for a while? It's so boring here, I don't even have anyone to talk to.”
"Scholar."
"I have something to do too."
Chang Sheng could not be bothered to waste time on the little girl. He turned around and left.
Only the little girl was left standing there alone.
"This little Taoist priest!"
The little girl wrinkled her nose.
No matter where she was, even in the Imperial Palace, everyone who saw her was timid and uneasy.
However, Chang Sheng did not show such an expression. Instead, it was as if he did not care about her identity at all.
At this moment.
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
A palace maid hurriedly walked in front of the little girl and said in fear.
"I'm fine."
The little girl shook her head and suddenly asked,"Is Eunuch Hong powerful?"
"Eunuch Hong?"
The palace maid was slightly stunned and quickly said,"Eunuch Hong is a red-robed eunuch personally conferred by His Majesty. With the strength of a Great Grandmaster, he is one of the top experts in the Imperial Palace. How can he not be powerful?”
Eunuch Hong was the eunuch who had escorted Consort Li to Mount Wudang.
All these years, if it wasn't for Eunuch Hong, Consort Li would have died countless times.
If it wasn't for Eunuch Hong's shocking display of power, Consort Li probably wouldn't have been able to reach Mount Wudang.
"I see."
The little girl nodded thoughtfully.
